About the journal
Members receive the Computer Communication Review (CCR) quarterly. CCR fills a unique niche in the spectrum of computer communications literature. Back Issues of CCR are available on this WWW archive from which you can retrieve papers which were submitted for publication in electronic form; these are linked in through the Tables of Contents. The Tables of Contents of all CCR issues (and its SIGCOMM predecessor publications) are also available.
- CCR has a strong emphasis on quick publication of interesting technical work, even if the work is still in progress, thereby keeping the SIGCOMM membership current with state-of-the-art research.
- Despite the tight publication schedule, every CCR article is reviewed by experts in the field before publication.
- CCR provides a variety of additional services, such as workshop reports, calls for papers, and general news of the data networking field.
- CCR has a strong commitment to helping first-time authors with interesting research ideas get their work into print; new authors can get extra editorial assistance in preparing their paper for publication.
Instructions to Authors
SIGCOMM CCR
INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS
(Revised October 2003)Computer Communication Review (CCR) is the publication of the ACM Special Interest Group on Data Communication (SIGCOMM) and prints papers and articles on topics within the SIG's field of interest. CCR primarily targets publication of papers that bring out interesting and novel ideas at an early stage in their development. The goals are to allow timely dissemination of new ideas or of works which might be useful to others, and can help trigger additional investigations. Papers submitted to CCR are nevertheless reviewed for relevance and technical correctness and accuracy. In addition, while the novelty and timeliness of a paper's content are the major criteria for its acceptance, this should not come at the cost of style and readability, as even the most original ideas or intriguing results are of little use if they are conveyed in an opaque manner. In other words, even though CCR targets publication of works at an early stage in their development, the need for a clear and concise presentation remains.
The review process is carried out under the responsibility of the CCR editorial board. The present composition of the editorial board is as follows:
Papers will be handled by one of the above editors and in order to be consistent with CCR's goal of timely publications, will typically go through a single, but thorough, round of reviews after which the editor responsible for the paper will make an editorial recommendation regarding the paper. In keeping with CCR's goal of timely publication, the target turn-around time for the review cycle is approximately 8 weeks, so that the majority of accepted papers can be published in the next issue of CCR following their submission. Authors are allowed to appeal editorial decisions, but only if they feel that factual or technical mistakes were made during the review process. In such instances, they can submit a rebuttal of up to 200 words to the area editor in charge of the paper. The editor and the concerned area editor will jointly consider such appeals, and may call on additional reviewers to ensure a fair handling of any such request as well as a prompt resolution and final editorial decision.
Papers accepted for publication are printed in CCR and are also made available on-line through the CCR Archives. However, accepted papers are not subject to the ACM prior publication rule and may later be submitted to other ACM journals for publication. Authors receive complimentary copies of the issue in which their submission is published.
CCR accepts two types of submissions: papers and notes. In broad terms, papers are carefully prepared presentations on topics in the field, while notes are shorter and typically less formal presentations. Examples of notes include corrections to other papers, and very concise, short research contributions.
Note on Bibliographies and Glossaries: Authors interested in submitting bibliographies, glossaries or similar material, including standard updates, are asked to contact the editor in advance. Because of space limits we are restricting the number and types of such works that we publish.
Where to Send SubmissionsManuscripts should be sent to the Editor:
John Wroclawski
MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab
Rm NE43-539
200 Technology Sq.
Cambridge, MA 02139 USA
phone: +1 617 253-7885
email: jtw.ccr at mercury.lcs.mit.edu
Papers must be submitted by email if at all possible. If extreme circumstances make this impossible, please contact the editor to discuss alternate arrangements.
How to Send SubmissionsPapers should be sent as MIME attachments by email to the editor. Submissions can be in a number of formats, including:
- PDF (Please use a common font such as Times Roman and do not include printer specific commands).
- Postscript (Please use a common font such as Times Roman and do not include printer specific commands).
The above two formats are the preferred ones for electronic submissions, but submissions in the following source formats are also accepted:
- LaTeX. When using LaTeX, please change the default font to Times Roman, i.e., using \usepackage{times} (*.cls document style files) or specifying times as one of the options in the \documentstyle[...,times,...]{article} statement (*.sty document style files).
- MS Word. When using MS Word, please use a common font such as Times Roman.
Authors should follow the guidelines in ACM's SIG Proceedings style files in formatting their papers. Submission in other formats may also be possible, but require that you first contact the editor. Please see below for more information on formatting.
In addition to their formatted paper, authors should also send to the editor a separate email with the following information:
- Title of the paper,
- Authors of the paper,
- A short abstract (100 words or less),
- The name and address of the corresponding author.
Format for PapersReview copies of papers submitted to CCR should conform to the following specifications:
- Manuscripts, once printed, should be single spaced (except for papers containing a great deal of mathematical notation; these should be prepared with as little additional line spacing as possible). The length of the paper should not exceed fifteen (15) pages when formatted for final publication, as described below.
- Text width of about 6.25 inches (16 cm) and text length of about 9 inches (23 cm), with all margins (left, right, head and foot) of 1 inch (2.5 cm). Font size should be 10pt or larger; the reviewers will thank you.
- Please do not use graphs, charts, or figures that depend on color to be legible.
Once accepted for publication, the authors should submit to the editor a postscript or pdf copy of their paper revised according to the recommendations made by the reviewers. If the paper's acceptance was conditional on specific revisions (editorial or technical), the paper should instead be first sent to the area editor in charge of the paper, who will be responsible for assessing compliance with the recommended changes and for making a final publication recommendation before forwarding the paper to the editor.
The final version of the paper should comply with the "standard" format described on the ACM's page on SIG Proceedings style files. Content formatting should include the following points:
- No header or footer information (page numbers, names, report numbers, etc.) should appear on the pages.
- The title of the paper, name(s) of author(s), affiliation(s) and e-mail address(es) should appear on the first page (either at the top of the page or in a footnote). A short abstract of approximately 100 words should follow the title, names, and affiliations. The text of the paper should begin a few lines below the abstract.
Format for NotesThe format for notes is less formal than that for papers. The desired format is:
- Text width of about 6.25 inches (16 cm) and text length of about 9 inches (23 cm), with all margins (left, right, head and foot) of 1 inch (2.5 cm).
- For accepted Notes, no header or footer information (page numbers, names, report numbers, etc.) should appear on the pages.
The name(s) and address(es) of the author(s) must appear somewhere within the document, preferably on the first page. Otherwise, the contents of the document is free form, except that it should not normally exceed five (5) pages and should not contain excessive white space.
